At Bright Home Surveys, our borescope survey process is designed to deliver precise results with minimal disruption to your property:

1. Preparation
   Before beginning the Borescope Survey, we thoroughly examine the property and locate suitable access points for the borescope camera. Small drill holes, typically only a few millimetres wide, are created in discrete locations to allow for the insertion of the borescope. Our technicians take care to select access points that minimise any impact on the property’s appearance and can be easily filled afterward.
2. Inspection
   A trained technician inserts the borescope into the targeted area, capturing high-definition images or videos of the space. This may include wall cavities, roof voids, and underfloor spaces. Using our advanced camera systems, we examine the area for specific issues such as damp, structural faults, or insulation gaps.
3. Analysis
   Once the footage and images are collected, we conduct a thorough analysis of the findings. Using the borescope survey data, we identify common issues such as poor insulation, damp or moisture ingress, and structural concerns that could lead to long-term damage if left unaddressed. Additionally, we examine the footage for evidence of pest activity, including nests, droppings, or damage caused by rodents or insects. This detailed analysis provides a clear understanding of the property’s condition, helping to pinpoint problem areas that may need immediate attention. Our thorough analysis helps clients understand the condition of their property and plan for  improvements.
4. Borescope Survey Report
   After completing the inspection, we deliver a detailed report featuring high-quality images, video footage, and our professional insights. The report outlines any identified issues, such as insulation gaps, signs of moisture, or pest-related damage, along with tailored recommendations for addressing them. Whether the solution involves improving insulation, applying damp-proofing measures, or arranging pest control, the report equips clients with clear, actionable steps to enhance the integrity and performance of their property.

A Borescope Survey of your cavity walls with Bright Home Surveys offers a number of key benefits, including providing you with meaningful insights and practical solutions to any issues identified during our inspection.

1. Non-Intrusive Inspection
   Unlike traditional inspection methods that can require large sections of wall removal, our Borescope Surveys are minimally invasive. We only need small, easily repairable drill holes, which preserves your property’s structural integrity and avoids costly restoration work.
2. Comprehensive and Actionable Reporting
   Our borescope survey reports provide more than just data and information - they include high-quality images, video clips, and a list of targeted recommendations for repairs or upgrades. This enables property owners to understand the condition of their property and prioritise improvements that offer the best return on investment.
3. Enhanced Energy Efficiency & Reduced Energy Costs
   By identifying insulation gaps and areas where heat may be escaping, our Borescope Surveys allow homeowners to make targeted improvements that can significantly reduce energy loss. Better insulation helps keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, ultimately lowering energy bills and enhancing indoor comfort.
4. Cost-Effective Preventative Maintenance
   Catching issues like moisture ingress or degraded insulation early can prevent costly repairs in the future. A Borescope Survey is a proactive step that helps property owners avoid larger, more expensive structural problems by enabling affordable, targeted fixes.
